Re: Reap The Wild Wind (1942)

Well the run-time is quoted at 122mins,
perhaps the DVD is running slower!!!!

I attributed that four minutes to being that actual film at the cinema runs slightly slower than DVD/VHS etc. There have been lots of instances in the past where running times are credited as longer than they actually are, for this reason.

However, if anything has been cut from the DVD release of 'Reap The Wild Wind', I'd be curious to know what is was and why.

Re: Reap The Wild Wind (1942)

This movie is not one of my favorites. I watch it every so often but I cant stand Millands role in this....just a PITA... Acts like a wimp,,and very decieving himself. Goes behind the back of Wayne to steal the girl ,,over and over. "Honorable? ,not hardly. It is simple as that. Also,,Goddards character was so two faced. Id rather watch Hellfighters.... I do have RTWW though but,,not in my top 50 ...Id give it a 4.

Random off topic musing by yours truly coming up!
I really love some of the non western hats Duke wears in his films.
I finally tracked down a Quiet Man style flat cap, bigger than the traditional British shooting cap, took a while to get used to it as its pretty big, now I have it with me all the time, save carrying an umbrella!
